![]() There is always someone tinkering with our food http://c****chdog.com/misc/premium-o...0-percent-pure It’s a shocker, I know, folks but buying premium orange juice is carton is not any purer than buying frozen concentrated OJ, unless the cartons are from Whole Foods’ 365 brand. ABC News’s Susan Donaldson James blew the whistle on most premium juices in her recent story revealing that cartons contain secret ingredients – flavor packs – that are not required to be disclosed. “After oranges are picked, they are shipped off to be processed. They are squeezed and pasteurized and, if they are not bound for frozen concentrate, are kept in aseptic storage, which involves stripping the juice of oxygen in a process called “deaeration,” and kept in million-gallon tanks for up to a year,” the article says. “Before packaging and shipping, the juice is then jazzed up with an added flavor pack, gleaned from orange byproducts such as the peel and pulp, to compensate for the loss of taste and aroma during the heating process. Different brands use different flavor packs to give their product its unique and always consistent taste. Minute Maid, for example, has a distinctive candy-sweet flavor. “Kristen Gunter, executive director of the Florida Citrus Processors Association, confirmed that juices are blended and stored and that flavor packs are added to pasteurized juice before shipping to stores.” |
